There isn't any way in which I can access a copy of one of the January 11 exam papers.. just for the sake of predicting how well I did..

B4, 5 and 6? I've never seen a paper with so many long answer questions! But the grade boundaries have given me hope lol :tongue:

No

B1,2,3. In truth, it wasn't that bad. The firstt question was the most difficult I think, which offset me for the rest of the exam, and they did that annoying thing when they don't specify how many boxes to tick and the question is a little wishy-washy anyway, so I was left less than pleased with the whole thing lol. :colondollar:

Good luck

Does AQA always release the grade boundaries before the actual results get handed out? And do other exam boards do this?

OCR and AQA both do this, and I'm not sure about other exam boards, probably because they've not been relevant yet. Google search term 'name of board' january 2011 grade boundary and it will either come up with something or not. ^_^

Ah I see, thank you :smile:

This whole thing is kinda good and bad at the same time... Knowing what the grade boundaries are before getting your result could really make you panic, especially if it's higher than normal or just higher than you expected. :/

It's okay. :smile:

Yeah, you're right! But if the boundaries are lower, then you don't make your grade, you will feel worse knowing that they wee low ARGH. lol XD Oh well; personally, I'm positive about the whole thing. Finding out boundaries made me strangely calm. XD
